I've been writing for magazines since the mid 70's. The one thing to keep in mind is "lead time." You should query magazines for seasonal material like this at least six months in advance. Most magazines are already working on their January or February issue. Think about this for next year.

These kinds of stories used to be fairly common in the mechanical-type magazines -- Popular Science, Popular Mechanics, etc. Not any more, unless the idea is very unique.
